Úna ní Fhlannagáin

Úna is an All-Ireland champion and prize-winner of the Riada Gold Medal for Harp in 2017. Known for her subtle phrasing and imaginative harp arrangements, she has collaborated with Celtic icon Alan Stivell, and Grammy-winner Bobby McFerrin. Her music weaves between ‘drivin’ and delicate, turbo-charged tunes and sensitive slow airs.

Her performances have been likened to 'viewing ancient Irish bog oak through a contemporary prism'. As a composer, she's been commissioned by the World Harp Congress and RTÉ, and had pieces published by Cairde na Cruite. Collaborations include legendary free jazz musician and composer Anthony Braxton, Celtic icon Alan Stivell, Grammy-winner Bobby McFerrin, and Emmy-winner Fionnuala Flanagan. Her current obsessions are Excel spreadsheets, piping marches, and crosswords!

Úna is rooted in Irish traditional music, but also branches out into jazz, pop, and original composition. Collaborations include Grammy-winner Bobby McFerrin, Emmy winner Fionnuala Flanagan, and the free jazz legend, Anthony Braxton.
